The Black Stars

The Management committee of Ghana's senior national team are on the hunt for an international friendly to prepare the Black Stars for their World Cup qualifier against Egypt on November 13.

According to sources, the committee are looking at three teams; Tunisia, Algeria or Morocco who they believe possess a similar style to the Egyptians.

The modalities of the friendly such as the date is said to be a stumbling block to any potential fixture because all three teams are also involved in qualification campaigns of their own.

The Black Stars made an abysmal start to their 2018 World Cup dream last week, as they were held by the Cranes in a match surrounded by many internal and external wranglings.

The Cranes of Uganda lost to Togo in a pre-match friendly but were able to hold the Stars who did not play a friendly ahead of the game.
